Stevenage form and stats

Stevenage, who have the fewest points (1) at home in League Two, have played 5 League Two games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 0-1-4 (wins-draws-losses). The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Stevenage, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Stevenage manager M. Sampson and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Forest Green Rovers (placed 5th) in the League Two. Before that game, the home loss against Northampton Town with the scoreline 0-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Stevenage perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Stevenage as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Stevenage has won 5 of these, drawn 4 and lost 3.

Stevenage aren't scoring a lot here at The Lamex Stadium in the league, with only 4 goals from 5 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 8 goals have been conceded.
